It is an interesting turn of events in the Morata transfer saga, after reports emerged that Arsenal have reopened talks with Real Madrid regarding a permanent summer transfer.

There was interest from the Gunners in January but Carlo Ancelotti refused to entertain the idea of any of his stars leaving in the middle of a title challenging season. However, Real Madrid are reportedly prepared to let him go in the summer if a buy-back clause is included in the deal.

After a fresh round of talks, and Morata's subsequent 'favoriting' of the now famous tweet, Arsenal are clear favourites to land the Spanish under-21 international ahead of rivals Manchester United, who were credited with an interest last month.

Manchester United manager David Moyes is looking to revamp his squad following a disappointing season and sees Morata as a good addition to the squad to develop behind Robin van Persie.
